About this award

The U.S. Army Research Development and Engineering Command has awarded a $249,969 firm fixed-price purchase order to Analog Photonics LLC, a Boston-based silicon photonics company, for research and development of on-chip wavelength generation technology for dense wavelength division multiplexing (DWDM) photonic transceivers. The contract, designated as a Total Small Business Set Aside, was awarded on December 22, 2025, with an ultimate completion date of June 21, 2026. This effort represents advancement in integrated photonics technology, which has applications in high-speed optical communications and sensing systems critical to defense modernization initiatives.

Analog Photonics brings substantial expertise to this engagement, having previously delivered silicon photonics solutions across multiple defense agencies including the Department of the Navy and Army Research Office, with a focus on optical phased arrays, LIDAR systems, and free-space optical communications. The company maintains an active indefinite-delivery/indefinite-quantity contract with the Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency supporting space-based adaptive communications technology development, positioning it well to contribute to the Army's photonics innovation objectives. Performance of this contract will occur in Boston, Massachusetts.
